The National Business Corporate Pension Fund, based in Okayama, plans to allocate roughly 1% of its total assets to crypto by investing in a passive fund managed by a hedge fund.

The fund, whose members include about 1,200 small and midsize enterprises, manages approximately 21.3 billion yen ($131.8 million) in assets and operates a retirement savings program. The planned crypto allocation is part of a broader effort to diversify currency risk.

โšก๏ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ President Donald J. Trump Ushers in the Next Frontier of Quantum Innovation

Today, President Donald J. Trump signed an Executive Order to supercharge U.S. innovation in quantum technologies and securing the nation against advanced cryptographic attacks (Executive Order 14409).

๐Ÿ”˜The Order directs the Assistant to the President for Science and Technology, in coordination with other relevant government leaders, to update the National Quantum Strategy to support quantum-enabling technology and encourage partnerships with U.S. industry.

๐Ÿ”˜The Order establishes a national effort to develop the first ever quantum computer powerful enough to initiate the era of quantum-enabled scientific discovery and accelerate quantum capabilities for commercial applications.

๐Ÿ”˜The Order calls on the Secretaries of Commerce, War, and Energy and the NASA Administrator to develop plans to deploy quantum-enabled sensors and networks in the next five years.

๐Ÿ”˜The Order prioritizes the development of a strong American quantum workforce through the expansion of registered apprenticeships, credentials, and the creation of National Quantum Workforce Development Institutes.

๐Ÿ”˜The Order reconstitutes the National Quantum Initiative Advisory Committee and directs the expansion of the Quantum Counterintelligence Protection Team. It also directs appropriate engagement with international partners on quantum matters.

It is the policy of the U.S. to safeguard national security and maintain technological leadership by responsibly and effectively executing the transition of Federal information systems to National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)-approved Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) for Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), and to assist critical infrastructure owners and operators with their transitions.

โ€ผ๏ธThis is needed for PQ Era and Stellar wallets.

Under President Trump's leadership, quantum is making a massive leap, and America is at the forefront of these innovations and groundbreaking technologies.

โšก๏ธ๐Ÿค‘ Ripple Secures Preliminary MiCA CASP License, Enabling Full-Scale Payments Services Across Europe

Ripple today announced it has received preliminary approval for its Crypto Asset Service Provider (CASP) license from Luxembourgโ€™s Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF) under the EUโ€™s Markets in Crypto Assets (MiCA) regulation. ๐ŸŽ‰

โœ… The preliminary approval, in the form of a โ€˜Green Light Letter,โ€™ is subject to final conditions.๐Ÿ”ฃ It will enable Ripple to scale regulated cryptoasset services to financial institutions and businesses across all 30 countries of the European Economic Area.

The CASP license, combined with Rippleโ€™s existing EU Electronic Money Institution (EMI) licence, will mean that European banks, fintechs and corporates can access Rippleโ€™s full cryptoasset and stablecoins payments infrastructure - collect, exchange and pay out - through a single integration for the first time.โ—๏ธ

The licence also positions Ripple to expand into broader cryptoasset activities in the region, as it continues to meet growing European demand for digital assets services and infrastructure.

โ€œFinancial market infrastructure is moving onchain - from cross-border payments and settlement to collateral management and tokenised assets - and banks and fintechs are actively building the digital asset capabilities they need to remain competitive. With our growing European presence, regulatory track record and institutional-grade infrastructure, weโ€™re ready to meet the moment and support that transition at scale,โ€ said Cassie Craddock, Managing Director, UK & Europe at Ripple.


โžก๏ธ Upon full approval, these combined CASP and EMI licenses will make Ripple fully MiCA-compliant. This follows Rippleโ€™s receipt of its EMI license and Cryptoasset Registration from the UKโ€™s Financial Conduct Authority in January 2026.

Ripple holds more than 75 regulatory licences globally, making it one of the most licensed crypto companies in the world. ๐Ÿš€

๐Ÿ”ฅ New DeFi Education Fund coalition seeks to harden crypto against cybersecurity threats

The DeFi Education Fund is launching a cryptocurrency cybersecurity coalition as part of a wider effort to bolster its defense against bad actors across the blockchain.

โ—๏ธOn Tuesday, the DeFi Education Fund alongside the Security Alliance (SEAL) and Asymmetric Research debuted the Open Protocol Security Coalition, or OPSeC, which it says will hold educational events geared toward lawmakers, as crypto bills make their way through Washington.

โฌ‡๏ธ Many best practices and resources exist, but the new coalition will strengthen those, said Amanda Tuminelli, CEO and Chief Legal Officer of DeFi Education Fund, in a statement.

"OPSeC is about amplifying access to these resources and bringing together industry experts so that we can ensure that security remains at the forefront of onchain software development and that teams of every size have access to excellent cybersecurity tools," Tuminelli said.


"The DEF team is honored to play a role in amplifying the amazing cybersecurity expertise that already exists, and we look forward to introducing policymakers to OPSeC team members and resources."


๐ŸŽฏ OPSeC says its first goal is to create a free "central hub" that will include resources and best practices.

Organizations that join OPSeC will also sign a pledge to commit "cybersecurity resources to the coalition effort," in part through tapping team members to share best practices and bringing forth new ideas. ๐Ÿš€

๐Ÿ’Š Pathway Labs Announces World's First FDA Clearance for Multicondition AI in Cardiology

Pathway Labs announced its public launch of EchoNext, the world's first FDA-approved AI detection tool that reads standard 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs) to flag high risk structural heart diseases for patients. Receiving FDA clearance for six indications, Pathway Labs also announced its partnership with OpenEvidence to make EchoNext available on the AI platform regularly used by over half of US clinicians.

EchoNext detects heart conditions that clinicians cannot, including right and left-sided heart failure, valve disease, severe hypertrophy compatible with infiltrative cardiomyopathy, and pulmonary hypertension, enabling earlier detection of diseases that usually go undetected until a patient is already symptomatic. The model was trained on more than 700,000 ECG-echocardiogram pairs across NewYork-Presbyterian's healthcare system and identified structural heart disease more accurately than cardiologists, including cardiologists using AI assistance.

EchoNext has shown robust performance in a range of studies representing over 20 hospitals and 500,000 patients in the United States and Canada.
